2nd Release : Eroisu by Isutoshi

This one took longer than I originally intended.
I got a lot of stuff going on, I'm sorry.. m(_ _)m

About the release,
I'm sure you guys have seen a lot of the excerpt scattering around the internet, but I never found the full volume done in one package, so here you are !!

On a side note..
You guys might be wondering why I did the stuff that someone else already translated ? It's so I can compare myself to their work..
I know I'm not good enough as it is.. So I think it might be a good way to see where I might be doing wrong, and how to improve myself..
I should learn a lot from those awesome guys before me
(Thank you SaHa, DesuDesu, Tonigobe, Brolen, TadanoHito and all other translators that I couldn't mention here, inculding the Anonymous ones !!)
Even now, I still think they had this special 'quality' that I'm lacking.. I still don't know what it is exactly, but I sure hope the work paid off.. ^_^

Surely, this would have a different 'feel' compared to their works..I am redoing the whole books after all, but I think it doesn't change the story..

Anyway, It seems like I'm the only one who don't use full-capitalized letters on my works.. I'm not sure if this is actually a bad thing or not, but if you guys think it's better to be fully-capitalized, please let me know !!

There is a small request I would like to make Here is a new original Doujin story which is: “Sakiko-san no Dansei Jijou” by JIN. It is a vey fantastic story I love it so much, and I really wish and hope that this one get a translation:

Woops, I had forgotten to add my thanks here too, you had to discuss on my blog ^^;;

So let's do it here too : really, thanks a LOT, Lhytiss, your translation choice was one of the best EVER !

Some translators will chose to translate a random incest story, for which a bloody rewrite would have done as good as an actual translation. Some others will pick a hentai doujin with barely more interest....And you, you, you chose to translate a well-drawn h-manga by Isutoshi, and your translation transformed something graphically good into something cosmically awesome thanks to its dialogues :D

I'm not sure I have already read a manga for which the translation has brought that much "added value" before, this might be one of the the highest compliments I can give :)

BTW, Lhytiss, we discussed about proofreading, I pasted a list of the things I observed in the comments on my blog, will you take a look ? It may help you in the future, I hope :)
